Reading

F Read the text and for questions 29-33 choose the correct answer A, B, C or D.

The Microsoft Home is a place where we

can explore the home of the future. It is a full-scale
model in the company’s Executive Briefing centre.
Craig Mundie, the Chief research officer came up with
this innovative idea in order to show what life will be
like in an environment where we can interact with
computers in a more natural way.
Homeowners will be able to experience new ways to
communicate with computers that go beyond commands
typed on a keyboard or sent by the clicking of a mouse.
This technology will include gestures, touch, voice
recognition and cues taken from the environment to
create 3D experiences. For instance, the design of a
teenager’s room can change depending on the child’s
mood or the dining room can convert to an exciting party
scene ideal for a children’s party. The young guests will
have personalised seats and will be able to control a
virtual toy like a plane flying around the table, using their
hand movements alone.
By asking the house “What’s up?” it will respond
and give us up-to-date information on the weather,
traffic reports and even reminders about appointments
and important messages. In the kitchen it will assist
the cook by projecting a recipe on the counter and
reading it aloud and also give details about how many
calories the meal contains. A larger screen will display
our health history and enable us to connect with top
medical experts in an emergency.
Technology in the home today works at our
command, but in the future it will work on our behalf
helping us to make better decisions. One such
example is informing us when our plants need
watering or more sunlight. In the entertainment room
families will be able to visit their favourite places
abroad such as an art gallery or museum and choose
to experience a virtual tour of the place. 3D images of
the exhibits will appear on the screen, they will even
be able to talk with the gallery curator and pick up any
of the pieces on display.
All these devices will mix in with the environment and
the physical and digital world will come together to
provide a whole new experience nothing like the homes
of today.
